Comments

Since the computation of the algorithm needs an extension of the integer part over a subset of C, the rule: floor(i*x) = i*floor(x) is used (which is what MuPAD does). The following program computes the exact value of the sum.

Examples

			kappa(-1/sqrt(-105)) = -(1/210 + (1/210)i)*sqrt(105).
